lazy sundays....

There is just something about watching football, and blogging on a Sunday afternoon.

I have been quite happy that ML has played more than 2 min in the past two games. 


I'm not happy about that sick loss last week, but I am happy that ML had a TD pass :-D


They are doing okay today...but not GREAT. Which I'm gonna be honest...it SUCKS.


They should be playing like it is the Super Bowl, 'cause jsut because they are going to the playoffs...doesn't mean they should give up.


There were those back-to-back stupid penalties in the 3rd...but there are 8 min left....plenty of time to score more!

let it snow...let it snow...let it snow

oh the weather outside is frightful....

especially for a visiting Arizona team battling it out in the snow against the NE Patriots.


The Cons: Just look at the score....it's self-explanatory

The Pros: 1 TD Pass for Matty L and plenty of TD passes for my 2nd favorite Matt 


I felt bad for Matty L and the helmet issue, and I am glad he got in, got to play and thanks to a nice pass to Fitz, we actually scored a touchdown. 


Seeing the Cards today made me feel like the WSU fans when they got shut-out several times this season....we still have Seattle, and we still have the playoffs.

I still have faith, and tough skin.

My thoughts and prayers go out to Matt and his family.

Crazy Cards!

They did it! Clinched!


Go Cards! I know I have been slow with the NFL posts, but I have been saying it since day one this is their year!



Rose Bowl

While I am super stoked about the Rose Bowl, but not super stoked about how the UCLA game went. 


Sure it was a WIN, but if we were to play UF the way we played UCLA----let's just say th end results would have sucked...


Nonetheless, I am excited about Penn State and the RB.

Wisemen for the Heisman.....1st Pick

1. Tebow (uf)
2. Bradford (ou)
3. McCoy (UT)

Beat UCLA

BEAT UCLA! BEAT UCLA! BEAT UCLA!

In a DREAM WORLD:

- USC BEATS UCLA. BY BEAT I mean SHUT OUT. Completely. I mean let UCLA see a repeat of BYU.
- FLORIDA BEATS ALABAMA
- MIZZOU BEATS OU

That would be...

1. UF
2. Texas
3. USC

right....well USC gains SUPER style points for destroying UCLA that we jump TEXAS and give up our Rose Bowl bid and go to Miami to play UF. :-D

That is in a perfect world.

In reality....

USC BEATS UCLA
FLORIDA BEATS BAMA
OU BEATS MIZZOU


stilll

UF
Texas
USC


but we play PSU in Pasadena.

However, my thoughts might change come Saturday, so check back for my final thoughts on this weekend.


love yas!

holy cardinals

so two bad weeks. not THAT bad considering they put up quite the fight against the Giants.


Now Thursday...

As bad as they were playing (a good fan can admit when her team plays like crap) can you tell me WHY they didn't give ML a chance? I mean seriously. Yes we all know. I miss watching ML play. Yes we all know- he's my #1 player and yes I am growing a soft spot for KW, but GIVE the guy a freaking chance. That's all I'm asking.


Granted- I don't sit in on practice, but Coach KW are you going to let the whole season go by and not let ML play?!


Rams up this Sunday for the Cards. My least favorite player (Will Witherspoon) in the NFL plays for this team. Yeah- I hold grudges....don't mess with me and my football ;)
